We have come to the Rockies for ten days to visit family in Provo, Utah, and then Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. The Grand Teton range is awe-inspiring, especially for us New Englanders for whom 5,000 feet is a big mountain. We are staying at Jackson Lake Lodge, elevation 6,400, with this view of Grand Teton, elevation 13,700 feet. The conspicuous patches of snow are small glaciers.
